This year, Bombardier Business Aircraft is celebrating the 20th anniversary of its Global Completion Centre in Montreal. The facility continues to ramp up activities surrounding the highly anticipated Global 7000 business jet, and is at the halfway point in its large-scale hiring objective to add 1,000 new positions to its local workforce.

This exciting milestone represents 20 years of contributing to Montreal’s aerospace industry and the immense success of Bombardier’s flagship Global aircraft,” said Paul Simard, Vice-President, Operations, Global Completion Centre. “This anniversary also highlights the superior quality, workmanship and expertise delivered at the Global Completion Centre, demonstrating Bombardier’s position as a leader in the business aircraft industry.
